Additional Information:The railroad line on which this bridge was built is the historic Wisconsin Central Railroad route that extended from Milwaukee to Germantown and points north. The line would later be run by the Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul Railroad and, by the time of the bridge’s circa-1962 construction, it was known as the Chicago, Milwaukee, St. Paul & Pacific Railroad. Prior to the bridge’s construction, at-grade tracks ran across the roadway. 2024: appearance unchanged. steel beam or plate girder bridge
